PACCAR is expanding its range of PACCAR engines in North America with the introduction of the PACCAR MX-11 engine, with an output of up to 430hp and 1,550 t/lbs of torque. The PACCAR MX-11, which complements the award-winning PACCAR MX-13 engine, is scheduled to be available with Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks in January of 2016. PACCAR successfully launched the PACCAR MX-11 engine in Europe in 2013, installing over 10,000 Paccar MX-11 engines in DAF trucks in the last two years.
“The PACCAR MX-11 engine is designed to deliver optimum performance and fuel economy, industry-leading durability and reliability, and a quiet operating environment for the driver,” said Landon Sproull, PACCAR assistant vice president. “Paccar's over 50 years of engine development and manufacturing expertise have established the company as one of the leading diesel engine manufacturers in the world.”
The 10.8L PACCAR MX-11 engine is characterized by its combination of state-of-the-art innovations and proven technologies that reduce weight and deliver features needed for a wide variety of over the road and vocational applications. The PACCAR MX-11 engine’s double overhead camshaft design, coupled with a compact graphite iron (CGI) engine block and cylinder head, create long-lasting durability, achieving an industry-leading B10 life of one million miles. The PACCAR MX-11 utilizes a common rail fuel system with injection pressures of 2,500 bar to optimize combustion and ensure the lowest possible fuel consumption and noise levels.
